I swear there is not a single one in this castle I was defending, ran around the whole outer wall and couldnt find one submitted by /u/SomeGoddamnLetters [link] [comments]
I'm not talking about singular throwing spears (even if I do really like the Pilum) or throwing knives. I'm talking about cheap javelins that come in stacks.
I spawned with a pair of eastern jagged javelins that would each cost the price of two caravans to replace (and could probably be sold for a caravan the moment you start lol, but they're not for sale since I want to use them), and I was wanting to outfit clan members with javelins as well.
The issue is, the cheapest javelins cost 2k a piece and unlike most weapons, it's best to carry 2-4 stacks of javelins depending on whether you want a shield and a melee weapon or just all-in skirmisher (I recommend having at least a shield so you can deal with archers) That means the lightest reasonable skirmisher build probably costs 7k to equip. vs potentially half that for an archer. Give that a horse and full light armor and the situation gets even more expensive, whereas it arguably gets cheaper for the archer as having a melee backup is much less important when your ammo count is 20-105 than when it's 6.
